S3-piLapse

S3-piLapse are simple scripts to set up streams of images or video into your AWS S3 buckets from your raspberry pi. These scripts will upload files into your S3 bucket with an interval rate until you stop the script. Files are not stored locally.

It uses boto3 and PiCamera.

Install

First, install the library and set a default region:

pi@raspberrypi:~$ pip install boto3

Next, set up credentials (in e.g. ~/.aws/credentials):

pi@raspberrypi:~$ aws configure

[default]
aws_access_key_id = YOUR_KEY
aws_secret_access_key = YOUR_SECRET

pi@raspberrypi:~$ python pilapse_video.py -i video_duration_rate_seconds -b your_bucket_name

pilapse_image.py will upload images from your pi into your AWS bucket. Simply run:
